In 1989 Tillie Fowler,a Republican,became the first member of her party to serving as president of the city council of Jacksonville,Florida.

president前不要加the或者a吗?

Humans do not constitute the only species endowed with intelligence:the higher animals also have considerably problem-solving abilities.

答案说considerably错,从结构看,它不可以修饰problem-solving这个形容词吗?

Greenpeace,an international organization of environmental activists founded by Canadians,uses nonviolent means to protest and block activities it considers environmentally harm.

答案说harm,改为harmful,是吧, 但这个it 好像有问题喔?

1.应加the吧，有个固定的  the A of the B

consonant

1官职都不加

2problem-soving abilities是个合成名词

3it considers environmentally harm.宾语从句省略引导词

=is condiders that(actievities) environmentally harmful.

environmentally  adv+adj

hendragom

2.considerable不是大量的意思吗？这里用形容词形式的就行了吧。

oh yeah,,oh yeah,宾从省略了that.

还有, owing to 是否只可以在句中, 而due to 可以句首和句尾都可以啊?

consonant

owing to=due to

放哪都可以
